HP Mediasmart

Hello

You don't know whether or not it is the right edge but will start here... my wife had an office with Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit, and it has HP Mediasmart installed... whenever she tries to open a picture, as a USB key, etc., it goes always to HP Mediasmart and she hates this program... I was wondering if it was possible to uninstall this program and install another program of usability more in its place without creating major problems... She is in her late 60s and not a lot of things the young generation like... smile... would appreciate your comments on this

Thank you

Larry Wöller

Dutchll,

Welcome on the user to user forums. Thank you for your question. The simple answer can be better explained visually.

Right-click on the image file, and then select Properties.

You will notice "opens with:" and change of scale.

You will notice that I installed Picasa Photo Viewer and it is my fault for opening graphics. 3.9 Picasa is a free software and a quality Viewer.

Here are the different programs that can be used.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-4190us drivers for Beats Audio and MediaSmart Webcam

    Nice day. I bought a Pavilion dv7-4190us last December 2010. I loved its audio quality. However, I recently formatted the OS due to some MBR problems. I managed to get most of the software I need to save for Beats Audio and MediaSmart Webcam.

    For Beats Audio, I find not everything on the page for the driver for my laptop model. For MediaSmart webcam, I downloaded and installed sp51029 but nothing happened. Someone knows what's the problem?

    Hello

    Try the following to see if you can install HP MediaSmart Webcam.

    First, download the MediaSmart Webcam Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp51001-51500/sp51029.exe

    Then, if you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip.

    Now, open your download folder, click with the right button on the HP MediaSmart Webcam Installer, select Extract 7 - Zip, select the files and then click Ok.  Open the newly extracted folder, open src and scroll down until you see the application setup ( 12th from the bottom with a size of 310 KB ).  This Application Configuration right click and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once installation is complete, restart the computer and see if the Wecam software has been installed successfully.

    To get to the Visual screen and the associated sounds that are displayed and heard when the volume control, you will need to install before MediaSmart Menu at least a MediaSmart package program. The best choice will be in my opinion:

    Now, you download and install:

    Hi there @SOLADA

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, so many other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that you are looking for advice on the question of whether you can uninstall HP Media Smart Photo

    In response to your question, you can remove courses it if you wish, however before you, take a look at this page and see if there is anything among the features, you can use before you remove the software.

    HP Notebook PC - using features of HP MediaSmart Photo software

    Of course you can simply change the default program to access your photo files using this method.

    Change which programs Windows uses by default - windows.microsoft.com

    If you don't need all the functionality of Mediasmart Photo software and space is a problem, so there's nothing to prevent you from removing.

    I hope this helps.

  • HP Mediasmart DVD on a6750t will not display data channel 5.1 via SPDIF or HDMI

    So, I got a desktop HP custom computer new Friday. Started playing with it on Saturday. I called Sunday morning to request an RMA number and return shipping label. Here's my saga:

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Started HP problem calls to 03:47 February 15, 2009

    Region (by spelling rep) said return is processed through warranty / customer). He said that HP does not publish a badge number. Ticket # xxxxxx3374.

    (Transferred to warranty/support service)

    (The line was full of static-asked for the 800 for the reminder. No one said that he had not the number I called in the. EU log www.hp.com. Found the number to call is 1 (800) 474-6836. I called this number.)

    Satya (by spelling rep) responded to the line. I told the rep that I don't get any output 5.1 for the Blu - ray disc software that was provided by HP (HP Mediasmart DVD). Informed him that all MS products, DVD and HD devices sent out to my Yamaha receiver 5.1 channel. [Are the important part of DVD. As the same drive is used for THE DVD and Blu - Ray, it is my opinion that the material works very well.] I repeated several times that the only thing to do not send 5.1 channels of data has been the player of HP MediaSmart DVD software for drives Blu - Ray.

    Satya ran various tests and wanted to "call back tomorrow with a solution. He seemed to think that maybe there is a problem with the hardware, and eventually I wasn't getting something in my order.

    I clearly started I wanted an RMA number and I wanted to return the product. Satya refused, saying that he had to 'search' the problem until it could issue the RMA number and return the product. He said he'd call between 14:00 and 17:00 tomorrow (STD) (I informed him he is currently 04:49 to my place.)

    The problem is not with the hardware. All software Microsoft products that support 5.1 channel send through data 5.1 SPDIF (optical cable) channels. Once again, all the DVD and other 5.1 (HD PVR) devices send (via s/PDIF) 5.1 channels of data to my Yamaha receiver. The only thing not released in 5.1 is the software (HP Mediasmart DVD) Blu - ray disc player. DVD is ran using the player Blu - ray (on the system only) and sends the data of channel 5.1 without any problem.

    Closed the problem HP call 04:52 February 15, 2009

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Thus, any other suggestions? I tried different things such as Passthrough-HDMI, HDMI-PCM, SPDIF and output of 6 speakers on the application of reader software HP MediaSmart DVD Blu - ray without result.

    I decided to try contacting chat support to see if they had ideas... After almost 2 hours of troubleshooting, a support chat, there is no current solution. I find myself with waiting on an another software update (I guess the previous update does not solve this problem and took 6 months to publish), or return the PC with installed defective software.

    When support calls me I will request the RMA and return labels to be reactivated and ship back to HP PC.

    I then go to BestBuy and buy a Blu - ray player.

    Good luck if you are keen on your nice new Blu - ray player and enjoyable new disc from reading over 2 channels.

    Unless you install a different drive (that YOU will have to pay), you're completely out of luck is HD audio (5.1, 6.1, 7.1 channels) via SPDIF or HDMI. I looked on all systems CTO and they ALL use the same software. Well. Mabey HP will be better in a few years.

    I am posting this as a solution only as the solution to the problem was to ship the return to HP PC and get a refund. < sigh >

    HP MediaSmart/TouchSmart Netflix Version: 1.0.2.0

    I have apalogize, I know that this has been done before, but I'm looking for different software or updates not upgrades.

    A couple of weeks, I tried to watch a movie Blu - ray (made before 2013) through HP MediaSmart DVD, when I put the movie in him would ask if I wanted to check the updates, so I said yes, he started the process of loading and asked again if I wanted to check the updates. Finally, I took the film and went into settings, watched in updates and there was an update. So I chose the update and HP MediaSmart DVD HP TouchSmart DVD changed. After that, the movie played fine.

    Now I'm watching a Blu - ray movie (made in 2013) and still once he asks me if I want to check the updates, so I took the film out, went into settings, that update, but there is nothing there. I put the movie back to try again and he asks me if I want to check the updates, so I push No., he would say "disk ready for play. Press Play to start. "So I press start and it will immediately message asking if I want to check the updates. So then the movie is still in I go into the settings, that update, and there is still nothing.

    All DVD for the 2013 game and rain fines. All comics before 2013 play fine. All BDs for 2013 keep asking check updates.

    Now, I find another reason that could not work the BDs is because my DVD/BD players could be updated.

    Device: hp BD O DH4O3S SCSI CdRom Device & hp DVD a DH16AAL SCSI CdRom Device
    Driver provider: Microsoft
    Driver date: 21/06/2006
    Driver version: 6.1.7601.17514
    Digital signer: Microsoft Windows

    I clicked on the update for both driver and said that I was aware.

    I find no new updates for HP TouchSmart DVD on CyberLink website. Where can I check updates? In addition, what I have to update all of the HP MediaSmart Software Suite to make it work (and where I do that)? Are there updates for DVD/BD drives and if there is where can I find them?

    Someone, please help me to find the updates.

    Sorry it took so long to get back to that.

    I finally got a new monitor (a long while ago):

    HP Pavilion 22bw IPS monitor 21.5 backlit "

    1920 x 1080

    VGA, DVI - D, HDMI

    So I tried again a movie BD 2013 on the HP MediaSmart/TouchSmart DVD thanks to the new screen and he asked again if I want to check for an update, but it worked fine on PowerDVD from CyberLink 13 (which means I have to buy ). So I have not watched all BD movies on my computer for awhile.

    I recently bought a new computer and restored my old computer to its factory condition and reinstalled all programs and installed the updates I could find.

    After I restored the computer I tried BD 2013 & 2015 on HP MediaSmart/TouchSmart DVD movies and he even asked if I want to check for an update. It's been 2 years and still no new updates! Looks like HP MediaSmart has become obsolete. I don't know if PowerDVD 13 still works because I obviously don't buy it.

    Thus, it seems that if someone wants to play movies BD 2013 or newer that they should ensure that they have the right connection between the monitor and the computer and buy a new BD software to replace the old software obsolete.

    With my new computer, I'll be closing this and boxing upward. So I don't need to worry about this more.

    Thank you for your time and your help. And good luck to anyone else who might have the same problem.

  • p6510y: MediaSmart will not work

    After the upgrade to Windows 10, HP MediaSmart stops working. For example: I click on 'photos' in mediasmart and the error code is the following:

    "Cannot launch MediaSmart.

    Possible reasons:

    (1) your VGA driver would need an update

    (2) it has not enough VRAM in your VGA card

    (3) remote desktop in Windows XP is not allowed"

    Recently, I installed a new hard drive, installed the installation CD provided CV factory for my p6510y and large all worked.

    I've recently updated to 10 (64-bit) Windows and now I get this error with MediaSmart.

    I have install all Windows updates automatically when they get to my pc.

    I checked the video drivers via Glary Utilities and it said that all drivers are up-to-date.

    Thank you for all the advice

    888Paul

    Hello 888Paul:

    Welcome to HP support. I'm sorry to inform you that your computer does not support Windows 10. Like my HP Touchsmart 600-1050-Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit computer. Please return back to windows 7. HP has not developed all the drivers to work with Windows 10 for our computers. They will never develop them. My computer was manufactured at the same time as yours was. They were made well before Windows 10 has even thought.

    If HP has done to develop windows 10 drivers they would then be on your page to update computers more than direction on the upgrade to Windows given 10. Here's your link page of the HP computers Web site.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-P6500-desktop-PC-series/4162263/model/4223472/drivers

    On the low left side. See more Option supported. This where HP it post to tell you if your computer can be upgraded to windows 8 or 10. In your case, neither one is displayed. This is why only Windows 7 drivers and software are provided. You need to check before you upgrade to Windows 10.

    There is no solution for this error on Windows 10 that you face now other then reinstalling back to Windows 7, then down to load Windows 7 Pro or Ultimate to Windows 7 on your computer with out of harming computers drivers or HP software.  It is done by opening the upgrade of Windows any time and enter the product key not discs.

    Sorry, you're not the only one who made this mistake too.  You're welcome frrw.

  • Where to download HP MediaSmart for windows 8?

    Hello
    I have improved my dv6 3300 ev, LL063EA #B1A Windows 8.1.
    Previous operating system was Windows 7, 64.
    I would like to ask where can I find and download HP MediaSmart and HP SimplePass which was preinstalled on my laptop.
    Thank you very much

    Hi chriscy,

    Thank you for your request, I am happy to help you!

    I see that you upgraded your system to Windows 8.1 and try to recover the SimplePass and MediaSmart software. HP has not tested Windows 8.1 on your system and so does not updated software for it. Download or update of software and drivers for HP computers

    You can try to use compatibility mode.

    Install the program

    Right-click on the program and select properties and switch to compatabililty mode. You'll see your options and choose the one that suits.

    I hope this has helped.

  • Pavilion P6207c: Hp mediasmart empty icon in the taskbar and icon missing in hp dock

    I restarted my computer and my HP Mediasmart icon in the taskbar is empty, when I click on it windows says it can't open because that its been moved, renamed or deleted. But the show task up if I right click on it like watch a dvd, listen to mp3's, see, modify or download photos, see modify or download videos. (all links in the task too much work) Then trying to understand the problem, that I thought I could basically icon/link to pull a bit of my HP Dock in the taskbar hoping it would be duplicate and appear in the taskbar. But to the contrary after leaving the dock and release the mouse button, it disappeared. How do I trouble the white icon and pick up the other icon in the dock? I pulled the HP Mediasmart icon directory .exe file and it is stuck in the dock, but it works the same. The original had an arrow below and if I clicked it, a drop-down list with all tasks would come down. With that I pulled from the directory that I have to click on it and then a new bar appears with different icons for each task.

    Well I solved the problem with the taskbar, I downloaded the hp mediasmart smartmenu, went into the directory and PIN to the taskbar. But I still can't one of the docking station will work as before.

    @enimen2 ,

    Hi and thanks again for the rear display.  If you can do it is no longer a restoration following options is a complete recovery of the system, return to the original configuration.  You want to back up all your information before you do.  Once it starts it will wipe your system clean.

    Here is a link that will help you to recovery.
